My OBi200 was shipped from Newegg via OnTrac. I chose not to pick Free shipping and go for $1.99. I got it in 3 days.

Ha ha:  in my case, Newegg used UPS Mail Innovations -->USPS.  Newegg must have some sort of least-cost algorithm to pick the carrier based on your destination address.

I hate those hybrid carrier-->USPS shipment methods, but if it helps keep the USPS in business, then thumbs up.

I always hate it when I know the package is going to be handed off to USPS, because that will automatically add one day, maybe two to delivery.  I must gave gotten lucky, because mine was delivered all the way to the door by UPS.  I ordered very early in the day Eastern time on the first day.

Those hybrid carriers are driving the customers crazy.

American Express is offering its members free SHOPRUNNER unlimited free 2-day shipping and free return. Newegg is one of the stores with SHOPRUNNER.

Maybe Amazon's on to something with their drone delivery. ;D
